Next episode - • How Historically Accur...
The world of Red Dead Redemption 2 is so large-so detailed and varied, so full of stories and inspirations. So many things to talk about. I’ve already made a video looking at the historical accuracy of Red Dead Redemption 2 from a broad perspective, but I feel like I’ve barely scratched the surface. There are so many events, items, locations, so many people, expressions, and traditions-and I want to know more about all of them. So, starting all the way back at the beginning, this is the real history of Red Dead Redemption 2.
The Real History is a series of videos about historical video games, examining the true events that inspired them. Whether it's set in the 13th century, the 1990s, or an alternate reality, each game has a unique aspect based on or inspired by true historical events, and I'll try to examine these in an educational and entertaining format.

Thank so much for checking out the video! I know I've already looked at the historical accuracy of Red Dead Redemption 2 from a broad perspective, but this game is so large, I feel like there's so much more to look at. And I'll never miss the chance to make a video about this game!
If you're interested in supporting the channel more, feel free to share the video or take a look at the benefits on Patreon. Honestly, though, your view is already more support than I could have ever asked for, and your comments mean the world to me. Your support is what keeps me going, and I can't thank you enough.
What did you think of the video? Interested to see more information about chapter 2? Let me know!
You need to do movies too!
Yes these are great!
Such an underrated channel, keep up the great work
definitely, cant wait!
This was so good. I have so much respect for creators like you, who put this much work into projects like this
I can't believe how much research went into this. You looked for every detail like if canned beans were sold in Colorado in 1899.
innit
It's refreshing how well rdr2 stood up to that kind of research. Most games today couldn't even put a candle light to that kind of detail
Google It’s amazing
@@TexasWarbird hell most media in general can't hold up to such intense scrutiny so it's really amazing how little was wrong with RDR2's historical accuracy top to bottom
I looked this up as soon as I came across the can in the game. Prior to this I always thought canned food was not around until the world war
this man went back and found colorado newspaper articles from 1899 to see if it was snowing in may. the absolute effort and detail in this video is just 👌
That was actually one of the reasons I made the video in the first place! I was fascinated to see if the weather was accurate, and the rest just kinda grew from there.
Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment! 😊
I just saw Fort Collins in Colorado went down to −38 °F (−38.9 °C) ouchie.
The blizzard in the beginning of the game is actually called “Great Blizzard of 1899”
@@JD_13 Interesting/amusing to see that Celsius and Fahrenheit actually correspond after a given point :)
(metric system ftw ;)
@@fhlostonparaphrase oh absolutely, using the bioling and freezing points of water, then dividing the gap into 100 nice little chunks just makes all the sense in the world. Thank goodness the creators of the Kelvin scale decided to also use the centigrade scale.
I came here from ‘Why Red Dead Redemption Is Perfect For Me’ and I *do not* regret staying
Great video watched it 3 times I think lol don’t even know why just think it’s one of the best vids on red dead 2.
Exactly!!!’ I felt the same! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Same mate
Same
For me, it’s definitely one of, if not the best, video game to ever exist.
I miss this game. Time to go play it again.
On my third play through. Played it when it released, then again during lockdown and decided that it was just too good of a story to not play a 3rd time lol.
I'm at Horseshoe overlook now, chapter 2.
Im stalling on going to the ranch outside of Valentine to collect Straus's money from the dude that coughs up TB on Arthur!
Darn you Rockstar!!!
Darn you for making the best character ever in a game then killing him off and making this grown man cry over a video game haahaaahaaa!
@@williamdistasio9358 I have played it 1 time earlier BUT THIRD
@@denlillavatten.67yearsago82 ive played it 10 no joke
never a bad time to play RDR2 again
Just started my 2nd playthrough yesterday
wow the research that went into this is impressive. Well done
🐳
Just like the research in rdr2, fantastic
Yeah this is good stuff
stop copying comments like your video ideas
@@Adam-sy3mj fight me
This is an amazing video and you can definitely tell how much work he put into it and it paid off. One of the most interesting videos about RDR2 and history in geberal I've ever seen. Hats off to you man
I agree so much!!! This video made my day with so much learning. Thank you honestly amazing video once again! 💖♥️❤️🥳🥳
Geberal, lol. Well, in geberal, I liked the geberal meaning of the overall geberal arch. I’m sorry lmao
@@MagklJellyBeanPastelLucidDream hats off to you geberal Lee sir!!!
A note about Arthur’s remark to Pearson “getting up to in the Navy”. In the US and UK men would spend long at sea and it wasnt uncommon for homosexual relationships to develop. Since no women were around theyd get out their pent up frustrations with other men. This is why when Navymen would come back home theyd get jabs at for this reputation even if the individual never got on with this. So Arthur could also be jabbing at Pearson when he says “I dont want to hear what you got up to in the Navy”.
This is false. This was an assumption made by members of other branches, and a running joke that continues to this day.
Well, it’s a stigma but not true.
I mean, why do you think masturbation exists?
@@nodaerT how can you be so sure ? Were you there watching every navymen ? All day every day while they were out at sea?
@@Camilhurt Back then homosexuality was punished with tar and feathering or execution. Nobody's that pent up. I mean their hands exist.
So it's like in prison
I love this channel so much, the world needs more Red Dead video essays.
Check out Man vs. History
@@JArguello04 I have, not exactly the same as this, still love his content though.
Have you watched Noah Caldwell Gervais'video on the series?
Probably the best one on the platform, Jacob Geller has two great video essays on the game as well.
5:40 very interesting considering the heavy Celtic themes with Arthur’s name and the names of several gang horses, from boadicea to Branwen, Ennis, and Gwydion
I respect no one more than a content creator who is clearly detail oriented in their discussions. You deserve more views/subs!
I’ve been watching RDR2 videos for years, from the goofy to the informative, like this- and I have to say that this is so damn impressive. Like I’m amazed at the amount of work that went into this. This deserves waaaaay more views. Big ups to you for real. I’m hella proud!
That’s so kind, thanks so much!
The two storms mentioned at the beginning, both the ones in Berthoud and in Windsor Colorado, actually adds to the credibility of the storm in the game, Windsor and Berthoud are on the front range/ plains, so any weather hitting them would also affect the weather in the mountains where it's generally worse and gets more snowfall. Source: I've lived there
A diamond in the rough of gaming content, really enjoyed this :) Cannot wait for your historical take on all the other chapters. Thank you.
I can't believe this channel ain't big enough for the both of us
Only one minute in and already know this is going to be good...
Please, do make a video for every chapter. It will take hundred years but I will wait and I'm willing to bet i'm not the only one.
Why is this channel still so underrated
Im sure that the people who will eventually come upon the channel because of the algorithm will say that it was a surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.
16:41 that break down of "on the lam" was very satisfying for some reason
Honestly if ambarino is based off Colorado they should totally add a north grizzlies part or a plains part with a city based off like Denver it would be quite cool and give some towns and a purpose to ambarino
A lot of finished, developed area exists north of Ambarino, I wonder if that wasn't the original plan but cut due to time intensity or narrative reasons
now THIS is history class
Damn man, it must’ve been a huge undertaking for the Rockstar devs to find this much information and put it into the game. And also for you to find the details in game and source them to real life. Amazing!
Ah, fancy seeing you here
@@professionalgamer6522 I think it’s your job now to find me under every single video
Howdy strange man
@@K_ingh16 Hello Arthur. Arthur Morgan
STRANGE MAN, STRANGE MAN, STRANGE MAN!!!
The rum part. On my first cruise as a merchant mariner, the rules are we can't have alcohol on board although there's a liquor locker on the boat but some guys just stuffed liquor into their bags and the watch sanders just turned a blind eye. Pretty sure the Captain had a bottle on board
The 19th century is such an interesting time in history. Not just for the United States but the whole world. It was a very transitional time I feel, and is when we can first start seeing many things that we take for granted today but were very new and odd back then. I'm glad Rockstar put so much attention to detail into the historical accuracy. Without sacrificing gameplay of course.
Id say the 20th century was the most important century for the future of humanity.
OH HECK YES!
Stumbled on your channel a few weeks back fueled by my still burning passion for this rockstar masterpiece! So glad to see a kindred spirit with your videos, rdr and otherwise! Your specificness and passion is AMAZING! And I am so excited what is to come on this channel!
Big Fan! :D
man i cant imagine how much effort you put into this, WHAT A VID
i just love the first missions in Ambarino. I wish there was more missions around colter
I lived in Leadville for 2 years I’ve been through a lot of those old mines and been hiking in all the mountains around them it’s amazing!
So navy rum is like drinking acid. Nice.
This was very informative. I’ve always been interested in the period between the Civil War and WWI. All we really learned about it in school was about the other skirmishes during the period; not much about the way life was.
the amount of effort that went into this video is insane. how did you find old newspapers of exactly what you were looking for? that’s incredible
Would love to see a full series on this aspect of the game, absolutely phenomenal video!
23:45 I love how Arthur casually lights a sigar while wearing a mask lol
This man puts so much research his vids, respect 👏
You are going to be more famous than you already are right now, bro. This is a quality content for a quality game ❤️🙏🏻
Please keep this series going. I can't imagine how much work it is, but your work is amazing.
Damn man when you put in real effort into your content you get real results. This is the most informative video on this game I’ve ever seen.
This is the best TH-cam video I have ever seen.
Agreed
honestly, this was so nice and informative to watch. I can't wait for the videos on the other missions! keep it up, this is great!
I am gonna say one word that defines this video: underrated.
your so unbelievably underrated its not even funny. your quality is insane and the amount of research and effort going in to these vids (specifically the historical accuracy of RDR2) is mind blowing. I'm leaving a comment so I can show my friends I was subscribed before u hit that 5mil or higher sub count. Keep doing what your doing man! (Currently: 55 700 Subscribers)
Just leaving a comment to let you know your hard work has not gone unnoticed, this is awesome content. Hope this channel grows, you got something special going on here
I deeply thank you for adding english subtitles.
Yeah, the narrator speaks Australian and I'm a bit rusty so I appreciate it as well
This game is the living history in our hands :) Still full off surprises after nearly 3 year after release.
bro was fact checking the cans of baked beans
This is absolutely amazing! So much work, thought and research put into this video. Makes me appreciate this game even more. Can't wait for the next parts.
As an archaeologist in Colorado, you even taught me new things. I absolutely love the absurdly detailed research you've done and I'd marry you on the spot.
I live about an hour from Leadville, and about 15 minutes NE there’s an abandoned 19th century homestead at the base of a mountain gulch.
I always wonder what it must’ve been like to live there back then. It must have been a hard life, particularly in winter.
New favourite youtuber
That was a great video, one of the best ive seen in months. 10/10
2 minutes in and I already subbed, u can tell when someone is making something they care about
Your voice really put the cherry on top, 10/10 video
bruh the end credits part is so amazing when you sync the text with the music is soooo clean love the video
The amount of research that has gone into this is amazing, great video!
Another great detail in this game is found in Saint Denis, in Chinatown all of the Chinese writing is written right to left just like it was back in that time, really shows that the developers cared about the history and realism.
Yes, I still love Red Dead too.
Hi! I have still yet to catch up with some of your newer content (Have been a bit busy with uni) but damn your videos are amazing, very well researched and explained, the production and everything. Nice job as always! I find them super satisfying
You deserve every support you need for this channel to grow. You deserve it!
Man, I really hope you continue this. It's extremely entertaining and lets me appreciated rdr2 even more than I already do
I'm currently watching this entire series, I'm always amazed. Great job, I'm proud of you for uploading these. Thanks man
Your Red Dead Redemption content is fantastic. This video alone is so well researched and provides such a deep insight into the universe of the game paralleled with the real world. Can’t wait to see more of these about the other chapters!
What incredible effort you put forth into this video. Not many channels are worth subscribing to but this one is without a doubt. Beautiful work!
I'm sad he didn't mention he plugged the early bottle jars with cheese
This video is so well put together. I admire how much work you put into your research! Great work!
The amount of research put into this video is amazing! Extremely interesting and satisfying to watch!
Imagine a game being created and will be beloved for decades to come… absolutely love this series. Doing the campaign.

Well thought out I even like the comparisons and breakdowns of the characters and the use of the information in comparison to real life. Truly well done. Excellent work
Amazing job doing the research for this video!
didn't expect to see the history behind the coins on Davey's eyes. educational & a cool Aussie accent -- yay!
A great take on a great game, I look forward to all your additional episodes, well done, extremely interesting.
Absolutely beautiful. Can't wait for the next, and I just discovered your channel. Glad I did. Amazing job friend
Goddamn this is amazing, i thought it was going to be just a rough walkthrough of some historical events happening at the time but no you went FULL ON in for this. well done!
I cannot describe how excited seeing this video pop up made me!
Love these videos I always wanted to see someone go mission by mission telling historical accuracies..especially like the train robbery being based on a real one.. hope u do the whole game this way!
The depth and quality of your research for these videos is insane!
FANTASTIC video! Please continue making the series!
man, we all appreciated your effort for your video, it took so much time consuming and dedication, just thank you 👏
The amount of work you must’ve put into this is incredible! You definitely earned a like and a subscribe from me and I will be looking very forward to more.
The work here is absolutely amazing…
Even your voice is soothing but intriguing. I’m absolutely stunned!
Oh yes. You've got my sub. These kind of in depth, unnecessary to most, kind of videos are entirely up my alley. Thankyou good sir for your hard work in researching and editing this video ❤
"to protect them from bugs, rodents, and children"
could've just said pests
Thats very disrespectful...
Rodents and bugs are way more valuable than children. Rodents can be cute pets that don't need much responsibility to take care of and bugs can be used as food alternatives.
@@zenothemeano4381 Children make pretty good food alternatives
Kids make pretty good LABOR alternatives

This video is so underrated!! Such cool content
Really appreciate the effort you put into the research. Video games and history are some of my favourite subjects, and the way you combine the two is just heaven.
I always appreciate it when people list sources at the end of their videos that way people can do more research.
It's a good day when Real pixels uploads :)
Thank you for another awesome video
the amount of work that went into this video is mindboggling
Great video, incredibly researched.
also thank you youtube for showing me all of these """smaller""" channels
(almost 70k is already huge imo)
Another great video. Can't wait to get to the next in the series.
Loved the video I hope you plan on making ones for all the other chapters in the game!
I'm not joking whatsoever when I say this is one of the best put together videos I've ever seen. The level of detail is absolutely incredible.
Keep it up, mate! I love RDR2 and history. For you to put both together in this medium is an awesome achievement.
i love this type of video! i would love to see more of these types of videos! you did a great job man!
I love how packed with information this video is. Fantastic work as always! I hope you don't stop doing RDR videos.
Personally I'm more interested on the historical events, background and customs of the people. Rather than the history of the objects. I'd trade more time focusing on people rather than items.
It is going to take me forever to watch this series because I keep goggle earthing all the real locations you mention! Not a bad thing I like how engaging it is for me. Thanks for the work it took making these videos.
You knocked this informative video out of the park. It was interesting all the way through. Glad I found your video.
Bro, thank you for this. I love this kind of detail and bringing to light things no one would have seen otherwise. I had no idea all of this detail was right in front of me, and I want to go back and play it again with a whole new appreciation.
What a remarkable video! Thanks for all the research and time it undoubtably took to create this. It's great!
This is such a well done video. You earned a new sub
Thank you so much for this video.. I really appreciate and admire the insane work you put into this. Really, congrats.. and.. keep 'em coming!!
Thank you for going back into time to get this video out for us
This is the smallest channel I have ever encountered with this quality level of content. I just hope that as you grow into a bigger channel, you don’t change much.
